Just missed a SMOKIN' deal on a very nice, early 6" half lug Ruger GP 100 w/box and paperwork for $325.00 !!!
And it was only about 2+ hours away!!
OK I am prepared to bend over and take a swift kick over this!!

Sound like a last second Hail Mary that was dropped.
Sorry you missed that one Ed

I have no idea what a 'Hail Mary' is and what it has to do with a gun purchase but this was nothing more than me not acting immediately when I saw the ad posted.

" Hail Mary " is a football term for throwing a bomb ( long pass toward the end zone ) with only seconds left in the game, to try to tie or win. Sorry.. probably are other analogies I could have used.
Bottom line...one slipped through your hands.

Yea I am 'kind of' looking for a 6" 357.
My first choice is an early low dash # Mod 27 S & W, followed by a Mod 28 or maybe a 586 or 686.
However a Ruger GP 100 is in the mix as well and I really blew it on this one.
I previously had a 4" GP 100 and really liked it but sold it after I bought my Mod 66 & 60 Smiths.
